Akademie Schloss Solitude

As an international Artist-in-Residence program, Akademie Schloss Solitude has supported approximately 1,400 young artists from more than 120 countries since opening its doors in 1990.

Residencies at Akademie Schloss Solitude enable fellows to devote themselves to their research projects under favorable material and intellectual conditions.

The internationality of this institution, the interdisciplinarity in the work, which is the result of scientific and artistic exchange, and the openness to novelties are significant characteristics of the Akademie Schloss Solitude.

From 2020 onward, Akademie Schloss Solitude in cooperation with KfW Stiftung is launching a new program with a specific content-related focus, which a group of seven fellows is invited to investigate in any way they wish over a period of nine months.

With this thematic focus, the Akademie wishes to consolidate the importance accorded by society to transdisciplinary and discursive-artistic work, providing content-related momentum.

Furthermore, the dynamic transdisciplinary online forum Schlosspost addresses current issues in art, culture, society, and the digital world, and provides insights into the practices of international artists and scientists.

It allows visibility to Solitude's network of alumni, friends, and experts in more than 120 countries, promoting new political voices and collective discourses in an open and sustainable space.
